Perfect Pop Music

Bit late to the party but love nothing more than pushing the boundaries of acceptable/cheese.

This has to be one of the best pop tracks ever recorded IMHO:

This one might ruffle a few feathers but I love it, very uplifting and really nice production. If you’ve seen the documentary released on Netflix recently I think this was one of the last ones before he parted ways with his producer and it shows:

Bordering on guilty pleasure territory but love the guitars and the synth in the background here, and the hook is incredibly catchy:

This gets a huge reaction every time. The original is pretty perfect, but all the best bits are elevated on this version.

This is a lovely little pop song.
Over 4 million views on Youtube and I’ve never heard it on the radio or ever seen or heard Dagny do any sort of media.

Mind if I grab this too?

The Butch Le Butch Borderline edit is a ripper version - has gone down well as an end-of-nighter. Quite like these three as polished pop tracks in their original guises.

The link should still be working I think?

Yes, it is. Just downloaded, Thanks!

maybe not the place but IAK were interesting in a way that say Shack and Rain were, but Elbow aren’t. Were they born 40 miles too far East?

Human League played a summer thing on costa brava a few years back and didn’t look too impressed when barely 75 people turned up. They finished with this, after I’d spent 90 minutes (im)patiently waiting for ‘the things that dreams are made of’ :slightly_smiling_face: They literally couldn’t wait to get off the stage at the end
